And Alexandra Burke was enjoying a rare night off on Sunday, hosting The Fall Ball at London’s Cafe de Paris alongside PR guru Nick Ede, aiming at raising awareness for strokes.

The former X Factor winner, 30, was supported by her fiancé Josh Ginnelly as she walked the red carpet in style – and certainly pulled out all the stops, performing a staggering three different outfit changes throughout the night.

Her involvement was all the more poignant since her mother Melissa Bell sadly passed away after suffering a stroke last year.

Money raised from the event will go towards the Melissa Bell Foundation, which will grant scholarships to young people at the Sylvia Young Theatre School and Style For Stroke Foundation, which works with UK charity the Stroke Association and benefits other stroke related charities in the UK and worldwide.

Alexandra looked incredible as she graced the red carpet at the star-studded gala, donning a simple black silk slip.

‘I always say to myself, if she can, I have no excuse to stop. I love to work, it comes from her. I do enjoy what I do.’

She added: ‘I just think, I’m a girl that had a big dream and still do have big dreams. I won The X Factor 10 years ago. There’s so much more I’d like to accomplish, I just like to keep going.’

Meanwhile, Alexandra recently confessed she ‘hasn’t even started’ planning her wedding to fiance Joshua, months after announcing their engagement.

Appearing on This Morning, the star admitted she hasn’t got past setting up a mood board for the big day, as both she and Joshua had been working non-stop.

Alexandra confessed that half a year after Joshua popped the question in Paris, she is yet to start planning her wedding.

She said: ‘Pinterest has formed yes, got the mood board going I started that, we recently had our engagement party a couple of weeks ago.

‘He’s on tour for a year, so the main thing is to enjoy being engaged, calling him my fiance, I want to travel with him more, and then focus on the wedding.’

Alexandra also reflected on the moment Joshua popped the question as they drove around Paris, confessing he had to wake her up in the car as she was exhausted from the Strictly Come Dancing final just days earlier.

She added: ‘We were driving around Paris and I was so knackered, but then he woke me up with the ring. It’s just magical being engaged it’s so amazing.’
